The historic Vermont town of Manchester has considerable charm as a glamping destination, with three distinct state-designated historic districts, the oldest tavern in Vermont, dating back to the 18th century, independent boutique shops that include one of America’s oldest bookstores, and a clutch of characterful local museums that cover everything from art to fly fishing. However, the town’s appeal is not limited to the settlement itself. With fishing and canoeing on the nearby Batten Kill River, skiing and hiking in the Green Mountains, with the Appalachian Trail and Long Trail both passing nearby, and of course the famous fall colors of the New England backwoods, all within easy reach, Manchester makes a perfect base from which to explore the region. The perfect riverside bed and breakfast can be found right here and will not disappoint. With accommodations ranging from historic mansions to rustic cabins, make this leafy corner of New England your next glamping getaway.
